This video refers to Systems in an ARPG. What you are describing is a gameplay feature and wasn't the topic of discussion for this video.

I cant tell you about PoE2‘s difficulty compred to other ARPGs as there is no info available.

oh, you're mainly D4 channel. I hope you'll like PoE 2 :D

I‘ve played PoE1 for 10 years.

There is certainly a difference between the games.

If they do i will go to the nearest bridge made out of dirt and look down in minecraft

Yeah I cant move my pto again.

Im rooting for no delay.

It won't, I'm sure of it

Exactly. For defense focus on the correct bases and spell suppression cap.

@@Chronikz alright, thx for answering, champ!

Swap to the Endgame version in the video description, its easier. Then LS endgame, yes.

Yes. You can also switch to the other version in the video description. Much more natural.

Fixed.

Paragon points. If you are not yet lvl 200+ there are earlier Paragon boards on maxroll.gg in the build guide.

Thanks for the positivity! You made my day. If you have any question find me on my twitch or ask here.

Then the cheat code would be to not hear more about it. 5Head

I think they‘ll make it to the worm in Act 1.

I do also agree that the one-button playstyle is not as engaging as it could be BUT its also kinda of soothing when you just get into flowstate and just blast. I hope thats not gone in PoE2 and you have to ultra-focus on "rotation". I guess we'll get used to it anyway.

But this video is about PoE2

Their whole marketing campaign is about PoE2 not being that. So you are hoping successfully.

@Chronikz sounds very good. 😁

Thats not the correct quote from the awesome video though.

@@Chronikz Do I need to explain this joke?

You just misquoted the quote though. It goes: „What if meth had a skillcheck.“

@@Chronikz I guess I need to explain the joke; I replaced it with 'get gud' because that is a common meme in the Souls community responding to anyone who sooks about the difficulty. Given PoE2 is heavily inspired by the Souls games and is reflectively gameplay designed around them as a blend between PoE and Soulslikes, I thought it'd be apt.

But get gud is the skill check. This doesnt even make sense.

Spoken like a true GIGACHAD.

This is the way.

RHOA TIME!

This video is about PoE2 though.

@@MosCraciun777 Sounds like an amazing game to me.

UA-cam.

Thanks for the comment! I fully agree.

It's an arpg - the east has a different idea to the west for the genre They use less rpg systems and focus more on the action, think games like Monster Hunter, Dark Souls and Dragons Dogma. In these games the act of playing the game and it's combat mechanics is the focus and gear stats are a secondary feature ARPGs in the west have delved into systems focused gameplay where interacting and understanding game mechanics like the stats, skills and how they can be mixed to get more damage is the focus

It's a 3rd person ARPG, where as D4, LE and PoE are isometric Arpgs

I am waiting the huntress the most, but I will be happy to try out the mercenary. That class look sick mate

It‘ll be very interesting to explore the difficulty.

Well I‘m not wrong.

Yes.

@@Tehblood The question is when and how, though? The framing is the problem. For example, how bad would it be if POE1 and 2 ran at the same time and more players were playing POE1 and retaining more players? With no choice, I have no doubt more POE1 players will play POE2 with no other option. This video just stated its a harder game with mechanics. So how does that fair to new players? What metric do we have any group in the genre, let alone POE players, even want this direction? Were not really having an honest conversation here. This is a developer's desire, which they think they can groom a playerbase into enjoying, not a consumer interest that's missing in the marketplace. Look, I am not convinced they have the marketing prowess to pull this off or a really developed process to onboard the average gamer to this game. They are still depending on content creators. What I see in the future is a strong launch with a strong falloff, which will hurt the brand. POE 1 and 2 will be in a poor state. There will be a hard pivot to make poe 2 like poe 1, and poe 1 will be cannibalized.

It's a systems arpg - not too hard to break the early game if you know what you're doing While PoE and the sequel have standard difficulty in the story I think they're over selling how hard the game is to appeal to soulsborne gamers Early HP stack and juicing one combo you can cycle will trivialize the difficulty of normal elites and bosses will just be a game of attrition, similarly to PoE1 In D4 you can scale your difficulty for more XP and starting in Expert or Penitent can actually be a challenge until you reach near lvl 50 where gear starts giving more stats The Torment tiers let you scale your difficulty curve even further and if you just want to blast enemies with your newly attained power with a maxed out build you can just play T1/T2 and if you want to scale loot drops and XP you can do T3/T4 Currently Spiritborn makes the difficulty a joke due to bugs but playing the other classes really shows you the jumps in difficulty between the tiers. While progression is more drawn out in D4 for the Paragon system and you scale way less early on, you can really feel your build boom as you get Uniques and GA gear For PoE2 one thing I think will carry this feeling of early power is as I said, maximizing a quick powerful skill combo and stacking HP and resistances Despite some of the bosses seemingly being hard in the previews I have a feeling the builds they've shown off are not representative of the power level you'd accurately have if you're at least engaging with the games mechanics They're using bad/underpowered builds to wow the Souls and normie audience

@@Tehblood It sounds like you also don't listen to GGG then as well because Chris has discussed it in length. What do you think ruthless is? Look at the numerous ways they attempted to introduce the mechanics of archnemesis league. Player overwhelmingly disapproved, but it was a direction they were dead set in going. So they kept testing and looking for ways to implement and get players accustomed to it. Thats grooming; its not a hot take or controversial. Look at the number of times they wanted to implement a slowdown effect through stun, freeze, instant death through telegraphed effect , sound, or life and players disliked it. They had to attempt it through numerous different ways for it to simply be adopted by the playerbase. What about a longer window? no What about a better telegraph? no You don't like perma death? no You don't like immune? no Okay, how about making the equipment needed to skip it more rare or expensive? We will take it Okay, how about perma for major loot and completely extra content, and you know the rewards? We will take it

@@PrimalDirective All fair points - where I disagree is the onboarding to being accustom to playing the game itself. For example the number of players who quit in the first act of POE 1 and the steps they taken to combat that. Your still having that issue with POE 2 - thats an education and not understanding the skillset issue. Its not intuitive as many think. Its never been a game you just pick up and play. The conversation is missing not the number of people excited to try it but not thinking about the number of frustrated players once they play it but actually like the game.

@@Tehblood fair point and I hope your correct.

For sure. Curious how it'll turn out.

You are 100% right!

I would not be suprised if Mud Flat Rowas have a higher death count than any boss.

no i cant i'm not a sweaty neckbeard and that's ok poa is not for casuals they found their nich and that's a good thing

TRUE

TRUE

You might be right but Elden Ring is a banger and a lot of casual players seem to enjoy it.

@@Chronikz Difference between Elden ring and PoE is the vast amount of knowledge of game mechanics, league mechanics, skill gems, defenses etc etc etc there's more than just the challenge of playing a build right, PoE has the whole backend of a library of knowledge that makes it harder to play, I hope GGG keeps that in mind, even if it is hard

Poe 2 is for a different audience and they take inspiration from elden ring. Jonathan himself said it. This is for the more combat focused audience.

This game will be perfect for fans of both western and eastern interpretations of the arpg genre The east is action focused while the west is systems focused PoE2 wants to meld the two Hopefully they can get it right and not frustrate casuals too much As a fan of Dragons Dogma and Dark Souls, as well as PoE and the Diablo games, I'm really interested to see to which side of the pendulum they will stick to the most, even if I already know they've kept a lot of systems from PoE1

Casual doesnt have to mean bad? If you are so bad learn to play.
